    Heavy equipment operator job in Madison, IN

    Department Operations Employment Type Full Time Location Clifty Creek Workplace type Onsite Compensation $30.06 - $32.85 / hour Reporting To Operating Supervisor or as assigned Duties and Responsibilities Minimum Qualifications Benefits About Ohio Valley Electric Corporation / Indiana - Kentucky Electric Corporation Ohio Valley Electric Corporation (OVEC) and its wholly owned subsidiary, Indiana-Kentucky Electric Corporation (IKEC), were organized on October 1, 1952. The Companies were formed by investor-owned utilities furnishing electric service in the Ohio River Valley area and their parent holding companies for the purpose of providing the large electric power requirements projected for the uranium enrichment facilities then under construction by the Atomic Energy Commission (AEC) near Portsmouth, Ohio. OVEC, AEC and OVEC's owners or their utility company affiliates (called Sponsoring Companies) entered into power agreements to ensure the availability of the AEC's substantial power requirements. On October 15, 1952, OVEC and AEC executed a 25-year agreement, which was later extended through December 31, 2005 under a Department of Energy (DOE) Power Agreement. On September 29, 2000, the DOE gave OVEC notice of cancellation of the DOE Power Agreement. On April 30, 2003, the DOE Power Agreement terminated in accordance with the notice of cancellation. OVEC and the Sponsoring Companies signed an Inter-Company Power Agreement (ICPA) on July 10, 1953, to support the DOE Power Agreement and provide for excess energy sales to the Sponsoring Companies of power not utilized by the DOE or its predecessors. Since the termination of the DOE Power Agreement on April 30, 2003, OVEC's entire generating capacity has been available to the Sponsoring Companies under the terms of the ICPA. The Sponsoring Companies and OVEC entered into an Amended and Restated ICPA, effective as of August 11, 2011, which extends its term to June 30, 2040. Why is OVEC/IKEC committed to Diversity, Equity and Inclusion (DEI)? Our Values of Respect and Innovation are key components directly related to our DEI commitment. Diversity, equity, inclusion and belonging strengthens and enhances our culture. Treating others the way we want to be treated and valuing each person's talents, perspectives, and experiences promotes and builds an innovative environment.
